Comment 16 for bug 42690

I agree, that rants are never good. You have to keep in mind that you are using free software written by people in their free time.

Nevertheless, I don't think that the usecase is _that_ uncommon. I've started my computer days in the windows-world and was used to 'explorer' for file browsing. I like having a tree view on the left side and a 'content'-view on the right one. And I bet I'm not the only one, even if some usability-/user-friendlyness-guys prefer the current Ubuntu default behaviour (which I personally dislike).

Therefore, this bug may not be critical or high 'cause it doesn't happen with default ubuntu settings, but I also tend to think that it's not 'low' prio either since possible data loss is involved.
